The goat Problem

The goat Problem

A farmer stands in a well and wants to know how deep it goes down there.

He throws down a small stone, but not hear it splash.

He picks up a large stone, throws him into the well - again, no splash
noise.

So he asks a passerby:
"Can you help me to throw this big rock into the well? I want to know
how deep it is."

With his last strength to the two boulders balancing on the edge of the
well and push him down.

Seconds later a goat whizzes past in monkeys pace, running against the
well and jumps down.

A little later comes by a shepherd:
"Have you seen my goat?"

"Yeah, right here it passed and jumped into the well," replies the farmer.

"Impossible," wards off the shepherd.
"I had the extra animal tied to a big rock ..."
